Chapter 316 Bedwetting
Ye Qian also came out with a piece of watermelon. She squatted down with the three children, took a bite, and said, "What's good? I'm not going to have dinner."
"I'm not eating anymore. I don't have enough stomach for watermelon after dinner. If I don't finish it, it will go bad." Ningning explained seriously.
Ranran quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, it would be a waste if such a big watermelon went bad."
Ye Qian couldn't bear to look at the two foodies, so she turned around and asked Xixi, "Is it delicious, Xixi?"
"It's delicious. This watermelon is so sweet, Mom." Xixi looked up and answered Ye Qian, then quickly took a bite of the watermelon.
"Well, if it tastes good, eat more." Ye Qian said lovingly to Xixi.
Ningning's eyes turned cautiously again: "Mom, why do you only want Xixi to eat more, but my brother and I can't eat more?"
"You would eat more even if I don't say anything, so why should I say it?" Ye Qian replied unhappily.
After finishing the one in his hand, Gu Jinyan handed over another piece. When Ranran and Ningning saw that Gu Jinyan only gave it to Ye Qian, they turned around and took another piece from inside, then returned to their original position and squatted to eat.
Ye Qian ate two pieces and then stopped. The children didn't want to eat, so she wanted to eat. Yesterday's steamed sweet potatoes were so delicious when they were served with rice, so she asked Auntie Lan to steam a few for her today. She wanted to eat sweet potatoes in the evening, but the meal was not ready yet. Ye Qian watched the children eat four pieces of watermelon in a row and couldn't help but say, "It's already evening, and you're going to pee tonight after eating so much watermelon."
The three children stopped immediately and looked at Ye Qian at the same time, hoping to say angrily: "Mom is bad, we haven't peed in a long time, how could we pee after eating watermelon?"
Ranran felt that Ningning was right: "Yes, we are so old now." Ranran felt that she had not urinated since she was 3 years old, so how could she still urinate in the bathroom when she was in elementary school? This was absolutely impossible.
Anyway, she had already said it in advance, so if the children didn't believe her, then so be it. She didn't care, "Well, remember to wash it yourself if you get it dirty." After saying that, she went back inside to eat sweet potatoes.
Xixi was obedient and stopped eating after the second piece of watermelon. Although she was also very greedy, she knew it was right to listen to her mother. Seeing Ye Qian go into the house, Xixi followed her in and sat with Ye Qian to eat sweet potatoes.
Just as Ye Qian expected, the next day the two brothers peed together. The key point was that they slept in the same bed and peed thoroughly. Ye Qian was not used to this. "I told you yesterday that you should wash your own dirty blankets. You two, go wash your dirty blankets now."
Ye Qian specially took out a large basin, a thin mattress pad, a thin quilt, and added water and laundry detergent. Thinking it would have a scent, Ye Qian added some fragrance beads. Of course, she did this behind their backs. Then she asked the two of them to put on their rain boots and step in the water. She said to them seriously, "Don't rest until you've cleaned it."
Xixi hid behind Ye Qian and covered her mouth with her hands, laughing secretly, thinking to herself that it was a good thing that she listened to her mother yesterday, otherwise she would not be able to wash two such thick beds by herself.
After explaining the matter of the child, Ye Qian took Gu Jinyan out and took out the address that the man gave her yesterday and handed it to Gu Jinyan: "Let's go to this place."
Seeing that Ye Qian had stopped joking and her expression was a little serious, Gu Jinyan didn't ask any more questions. He got on his bicycle and took Ye Qian there. The place was quite far away, and it took them more than an hour to get there. Fortunately, Ye Qian had the foresight to put a cushion on the back seat for herself, otherwise she really couldn't bear it.
The address was written in great detail, and there was only a dilapidated house here. Ye Qian walked over directly and opened the door to see a coffin. The house was dilapidated, but the coffin was new. Ye Qian wanted to go in, but was stopped by Gu Jinyan, "It's strange to have a coffin here. Don't go in."
Ye Qian shook her head: "It's okay, go in."
Ye Qian walked in, and Gu Jinyan followed behind her cautiously, fearing that something might happen during the process and that he would not be able to dodge in time. Ye Qian walked towards the coffin and then saw the man from yesterday lying inside, neatly dressed, with no expression of discomfort on his face, and it seemed that he passed away peacefully.
In fact, it was not that she hadn't thought about it, otherwise she wouldn't have come to her. This was like giving her a new life, so it wasn't impossible to collect his body. Seeing Ye Qian staring at the corpse, Gu Jinyan asked, "Do you know this person?"
"I guess so." Ye Qian replied. Gu Jinyan looked at the man twice more, and a sense of familiarity came over him, but he couldn't remember who this person was, so he said, "Do I know this person?"
"You remember." Ye Qian knew she had let the cat out of the bag the moment she said this. Gu Jinyan quickly asked, "What do you mean? How do you know I know him, and why don't I have any impression of him?" Gu Jinyan was a little puzzled. He had never lost his memory before, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember where he had seen this person before.
"Let's close the coffin first." Ye Qian said, let's leave everything for later, the dead are the most important. After the two lifted the coffin lid and closed it, they found a letter on the ground. It was written on it and there was a flower pinned on the envelope.
Ye Qian quickly opened the letter, wanting to know its contents as soon as possible.
Dear Ye Qian:
When you see this letter, I will no longer be here. It doesn't matter whether you know what happened or not. I have repaid my father's kindness to your family. A coffin is enough for someone like me. I asked you to come here to fulfill my wish and to give me the final dignity. I don't need a tombstone on my grave. I can just bury me directly. This matter is over now. We no longer owe each other anything.
Signed by: Gu Jinyan.
When Ye Qian saw the name of the signer, she felt like she was struck by lightning. She didn't know how to express it. Ye Qian's face turned pale for a moment and she almost fell down. Gu Jinyan hurried over to support Ye Qian for fear that she would fall. At the same time, he was also very curious about the content of the letter.
He had been standing opposite Ye Qian just now. Seeing that Ye Qian's expression was not right, but Ye Qian was like this after reading the letter, he asked: "What letter is it? Can I see it?"
"I'm not trying to hide it from you, but you'd better not look at it. I don't know how to explain it." Of course, he didn't know how to explain it. The person in the coffin was Gu Jinyan, and the person next to him was also Gu Jinyan. What did that mean? What was going on?
Ye Qian, who thought she had understood what had happened, was now completely confused. In the end, she thought she understood something, but in fact she still didn't understand it. But the person was gone now, and she couldn't catch him and ask him. Ye Qian had many questions in her mind, but she decided to bury him first.
There were tools in the house, and she and Gu Jinyan worked together to carry this "Gu Jinyan" to the back of the house and buried him. It was not that they didn't want to bury him farther away, but she was a woman and couldn't lift him, and Gu Jinyan couldn't carry him far by himself either. They had already done their best to carry him to the back of the house.
